At KTUphoria, some of the biggest acts in pop, dance, and hip-hop converge upon PNC Bank Arts Center for a daylong deluge of getting down that’s certain to align anyone with two left feet. World-class entertainer and producer Pitbull headlines the festival with his sizzling buffet of playful rhymes, sultry Miami bass, and hot-stepping choreography. Grammy-nominated rapper Flo Rida, known for mega hits such as “Low” and “Right Round,” also extends his peninsula of jams into the rapturous crowd. American Idol superstar Adam Lambert fans his fans with gusts of unbridled pop blown from his numerous lungs, and electropop singer Dev pulsates hindquarters with tracks such as “Booty Bounce” and “In My Trunk.” The festival also includes performances by DJs Calvin Harris and Havana Brown, rapper K’Naan, pop duo Karmin, and a special set by international heartthrob Enrique Iglesias.

Those can’t wait to get their party started can bounce in at 3 p.m. for the pregame. DJ sets by KTU mixers score the early afternoon, along with performances by electronica duo The Disco Fries and the swivel-inducing triumvirate of Italia3.
